Feel free to discuss anything about any of the thousands of Transformer toys here. Anything from Generation 1 all the way to the soon to be released, the never to be released or the hope to be released is fair game! Want to show off your stuff? Please post your's and see others in the Transformers Collections Forum.

We get our first look at the Transformers Cloud Optimus Prime and Megatron via a tweeted magazine scan. This look at the upcoming toys comes to us from @nakigao_san on Twitter. As previously reported, Optimus is a repaint of the Classics/Henkei mold exclusive to TakaraTomyMall and Megatron is a repaint of the Generations GDO Megatron exclusive to eHobby. As a bonus, we also get to see the Transformers Go! G25 Black Leo Prime. The image is mirrored below for your convenience.

lol, this is hilarious. Henkei is much better. Not only does the Windtop thing match in red on Henkei, the chrome legs are nicer. But for anyone that doesn't have the mold it's good I guess. One of my favorite molds. Megatron though? ugh.. Still not a good enough Megatron for Classics. Can anyone stand up to Hegemon?

Motto:"Our society's downfall will not be this war. The war IS our society. That which will get us will be the little things. Some humanoid race, some tossed cannon, the little things that no one looks out for. THAT is for what we must be vigilant."

Weapon: Twin Shoulder-Mounted Rocket Launchers

I do prefer the neck-down mold for Bludgeon over Megs, and I'm not quite sold on the whie face, it almost looks too makeup-y to me... but a little extra paint, and that wouldn't be a bad earth-mode version of his War Within Tank mode. A US release, I'd have bought it.

I like that Optimus, it's a great mold plus the cartoon accurate white is actually pretty nice to see on a toy for once. Although it's pretty odd to have show accurate colours on a mold that's vastly different from the actual cartoon model. If it'S not too expensive to get I might get it for my Classics Prime collection.

The arm panels are still made of translucent plastic, thus not worth the premium. Pity... I like the classics Prime mold, but with the panel plastic being a major design problem It's getting harder to justify each subsequent release.

The third, since Classics and Henkei! Henkei! Megatron was the first and second.

Don't forget G1

MP

G2

And all of the Animated versions, basically all that are based on G1 Megatron. Especially the cartoon model which mistook the gun kibble as being his helmet, while the things we know as "eye-brows" are likely meant to be the crest of his helmet and not part of his face.

So why are people surprised that this thing as a uni-brow?

Oh also, the body of Megatron looks great as always, but damn that head sculpt looks even crappier now than it did in G2 colours. WTF Takara?

I really don't want to buy either one of these molds yet again, but Op is looking like an easy sell. Stay Puft Marshmallow Megatron(seriously, look at that horrible face) on the other hand... no thanks.
